Over 900 applications for programmes are now registered for the Second Dr-wing. The Company w -re induced to make this Second Drawing for I 3 >OO, in c msequeuce of the first drawing having filled so rapidly, also to enable them to give larger p-iz"S.

Total amount, L3OHO 240 Money Priz.-s. The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, as it is so drawn that a prize mush come to every 25 numbers, and the chances are in favour of the investor drawing a large prize, as theie are 124 large prizes against 116 small ones. To any investor? of L2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. The large bulk of the Money in this Grand Drawing is not given away in one big prize, as in the Horse Consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the 1.3000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Prizes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburg Drawing is on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, so as to give entire public satisfaction. Tnis Second Drawing for L3OOO will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
